Worms and/or worm castings

They are excellent for organic grows. Preferably worm casting or worm tea(from worm farm or bought) would be better than just putting worms in the pots. They truly make colourful strains colourful if thats the only nutes you use and nothing taste better than organic nugs.
It does work to an extent, but just not as good as using castings or tea. Remember what you feed the worms also affects the quality of the castings. So if your only using "soil" it won't work too well. You need to feed them good stuff for good castings, so if your not verimicomposting would be better to just buy castings.

Excellent info! Sounds like you are experienced here. I have 4 years and trying to get better. I'm currently using Techna Flora nutes (ie., magical, thrieve alive B1, sugar daddy, and awsome blossums) on the flowering girls. I'm told that there is sea weed in these products by the manufacturer. Any thoughts...
I used to use fox farm trio or the ozi magic grow stuff...but it got expensive quick. So preferred to use veggie nutes or homemade casting instead lol, same thing just unbranded and un-hyped. Sea weeds good, but it's more of a general health tonic(trace elements and essential hormones kinda thing) than a nute. But it depends on your plant's genetics too. A plant bred in hydro/coco with high nutes will definitely not do as well in a low nute organic soil as opposed to a plant bred in only organic soil.

I used FF my first year in dirt and a hydro setup. Both were too expensive to maintain. I'm thinking of getting some Dyna-Gro Bloom and dedicating it to one of my two tents. The tents have girl's with the names: Bubbleicious Fem Auto, Short Rider Fem Auto, Blue Mistic Fem Auto, and some good seeds I brought back from some Jamica Airee.
